The only thing a picture will do is make you and me know the facts in this matter. But if you think about it, It is not really important to Iran if you or I thinks this ever happened.

Iran has no obligations to satisfy us with evidence of their downed US drone.

The US have admitted that they have lost a Drone. And iran claims that they have it. They dont have to prove it.

Hmm, I dont know, maybe its the fact that this is not the first time Iran has claimed to have shot down a US UCAV, only then to back away from such a statement after the US disputed the claim.

The US military said that they lost a UAV over a week ago along the Afghan border, however, they did not specify what kind of drone it was. It could have been an MQ-9 Predator, which is the primary reconnaissance aircraft that we use at the moment.

Really a picture of the wreckage isn't much to ask. Especially given the Iranian regimes past record in using propaganda and lies to sell their people.

No, Its not to much to ask for and it would be nice to see it. But Iran has no obligations either way. It dosent matter if they have made false claims in the past.

The US have not neglected the fact that it was a RQ-170 that went missing. The US are not saying anything, probably because they are braising them selves for what Iran might display if they choose to so at some point.

If the US had the drone in their possession, it would have made the news by now. But they are saying it went missing. That means they dont have it. The pentagon has said that Iran has something, but they wont say what it is.

Iran is Persian, not Arab

There is always someone at the top. Take down the US, and China takes the stage. It's simply what nations do.

And hey, if you want to deal with a billion man brutal dictatorship, be my guess. America will wait it out and laugh.

You say "we" as if it's us vs them. It never was. Don't kid yourself. If that unity existed, then America wouldn't be the world leader. Nor China to be.

China cant be that bad, They have produced over a billion people. The US could never produce a billion people with its capitalistic ego system and social structure.

In a few years Americans will probably wish they lived somewhere else. The US is turning into what east Germany used to be before the wall came down.

Top US officials are now reporting that a US Drone that was on patrol in Afganistan lost power and that is how it went down in Iran. I am thinking that we were actually doing secret patrols in Iran, but of course the US doesn't want to admit to that, why would we? I think we really need to either crap or get off the pot in regards to Iran, because the longer this thing drags out the worse I see it going. Either bomb the nuclear labs back to the stone age or just leave them alone all together. Don't we have enough problems here in the US as it is?

You cant just bomb the nuclear sites without the risk of a Iranian retaliation. It is the retaliation capabilities from the Iranians that keep you from attacking. The risk is to high. Not that you wont Winn the war, but at what cost. That is the big issue.

You have to take out all of Iran or nothing at all. That is quite a gamble.

Population size does not say how good or bad you are nor if capitalism is bad or not.


In fact, population size, if anything, is inverse to general intelligence. It's a good scale for gross national brain power. That would make Europe, unsurprisingly, the most intellectual.

In a few years, you don't know what's going to happen. I heard the same stuff back in 2003, 2005, and many other years. Nothing happens. because we're not barbarians. This government has collapsed multiple times, and always built itself back up.

No capitalism is not bad if it is conducted properly. How is the our economy doing right now???

Population growth tells you a lot about a nations capabilities, intelligence and discipline. China is surpassing the western economy. That should tell you a lot about their intelligence, capabilities and discipline.

You dont want to live according to the Chinese because you are propped with western pro propaganda. Chine is probably being fed their propaganda as well. It show the political system works.

If you were a Chinese living in chine you would have a different point of view. But you probably dont live in China and your are probably not Chinese.

Spell it right. China. Not Chine. If you want to spell it that way, at last say Sinae


And No. Once again you don't understand. Desire to live in your home is not the same as support for your government nor the same as desire to remain int he way things are.

Good God. If you're going to ramble, at least have some sense to it.

By by American and good luck.

Imagine how great it would feel to take out a flying killer robot soaring over your city.

That's what I'm saying. This is like Roswell for them. If any technology is recovered, it's far more advanced than what they know. We should be more careful.

Very true, but they have other scientists, from russia, that will help them back engineer what ever they have! To me, the drone will go the the country that is the highest bidder likely, with a promise they will share the technology with them. Scary but true.
